The 'Best' Of DOS Gaming!

Hey guys just saw this and it brought back some great memories of gaming when I was younger thought I'd post it and hopefully do the same for you! Any games that aren't listed that you loved feel free to share too

It's a good list. I'm glad obscurities like Albion were mentioned. I played the demo back in the day and even that felt pretty massive. Some games they missed were Stargunner, one of the last (if not the last) DOS 2D game released by Apogee/3D Realms in 1996, it's a great shmup. Ecstatica is also an awesome medieval survival horror game.

Hmm old SSI games.. Pool of Radiance, Curse of the Azure Bonds, Secret of the Silver Blades, Pools of Radiance, and the of Krynn (i think champions, death knights, dark queen but not sure) series and such?

i used to love the indiana jones game i think it was the last crusade where half the game you are punching people in the face using the NumPad.

No?

Brought me good entertainment..

Was Challenge of the Five Realms on there? Another older RPG that had lots of interesting characters, but was sadly ruined by a stupid time limit scenario.

My God, what a horrible creation. People seeing what they want? Thank God they tried to shy away from that. I know it pisses me off when I'm in an heroic raid, yet in the back of my head all I can think is 'some casual player is playing a heroic dungeon and not wiping.' -Vodkarn

There was a DOS game I played once or twice, but stopped playing because it scared the crap out of me as a little kid.

I don't remember what it was called. But it was basically a first person pac-man. You roamed around a maze and collected points while trying to avoid ghosts.

The thing that scared me about it? You could never see the ghosts behind you (Of course), and it played this really creepy sound when you got caught, and then you'd see the teeth of the ghost closing in around the screen and turning it all black.
